Roof Replacement in Oklahoma City, OK

Signs You Need a Roof Replacement

After 26 years of working in Oklahoma’s tornado alley, we’ve learned to spot the warning signs that indicate when repair isn’t enough. Here’s what our team looks for during every inspection.

Age is the biggest factor. Most asphalt shingles in Oklahoma City need replacement after 18-25 years due to our extreme weather cycles. If your roof is approaching this age, especially if installed before 2010, replacement often makes more financial sense than repeated repairs.

Storm damage creates cascading problems. Oklahoma’s hail storms and high winds can compromise your roof’s structural integrity even when damage isn’t immediately visible. Missing or loose shingles, granule loss, and exposed nail heads are red flags that indicate your roof’s protective barrier has been breached.

Water infiltration never fixes itself. Stains on ceilings, water marks in the attic, or any signs of moisture inside your home mean your roof is already failing. What starts as a small leak becomes a major structural issue when Oklahoma’s ice storms and temperature swings expand the damage.

Sagging or structural issues require immediate attention. If you notice any dips, curves, or sagging areas on your roofline, this indicates serious structural problems that only full replacement can address safely.

Types of Roofs We Replace

Our Oklahoma City team specializes in complete replacement of residential pitched roofs, the most common type in our area. We handle everything from simple gable roofs to complex multi-level designs with dormers, valleys, and architectural features.

Residential roof systems make up 85% of our replacement work. This includes asphalt shingle roofs, metal roofing systems, and tile installations designed specifically for Oklahoma’s wind loads and temperature extremes.

Commercial flat roof replacement represents our commercial expertise. We replace TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen systems on office buildings, retail spaces, and multi-family housing throughout the Oklahoma City metro area.

Specialty applications include historical home restorations and energy-efficient upgrades where homeowners want to combine roof replacement with solar installation or advanced ventilation systems.

Roofing Materials We Install

Based on our experience with Oklahoma City’s challenging climate, we recommend materials that excel in wind resistance, hail protection, and temperature cycling. Here’s what we install most often and why.

Asphalt Shingles We Install

We partner with GAF as Master Elite contractors, meaning we can offer their strongest warranties and have access to their complete product line. GAF’s Timberline HDZ shingles perform exceptionally well in Oklahoma conditions, with wind resistance up to 130 mph and excellent granule retention through hail storms. The 30-year warranty gives families peace of mind, and we’ve seen these shingles maintain their appearance and protection even after severe weather events.

Owens Corning Duration series provides another excellent option, especially for homeowners prioritizing energy efficiency. These shingles feature SureNail technology that significantly improves wind resistance—critical for Oklahoma City’s tornado season. The algae-resistant granules also help in our humid climate, and their Energy Star rating can reduce cooling costs during our intense summers.

CertainTeed’s Landmark series offers premium performance with advanced polymer technology that handles our extreme temperature swings better than standard shingles. We’ve installed thousands of square feet of CertainTeed products in Oklahoma City, and they consistently deliver on their 30-year warranty promise.

Metal Roofing We Install

Metal roofing has become increasingly popular in Oklahoma City because it sheds hail damage better than any other material and provides unmatched wind resistance. We install standing seam systems that can withstand winds exceeding 140 mph, making them ideal for our tornado-prone region.

Our steel and aluminum options both carry 30-50 year warranties depending on the coating system. The energy savings are substantial—many of our clients see 20-30% reductions in cooling costs during Oklahoma’s brutal summers. Metal also provides excellent protection against ice dams during our periodic ice storms.

Single-Ply Membranes for Commercial Projects

For flat and low-slope commercial applications, we install TPO, PVC, and EPDM systems from leading manufacturers like Mule-Hide and Duro-Last. These materials handle Oklahoma’s UV exposure and temperature cycling exceptionally well, with typical warranties ranging from 15-30 years.

Additional Options We Install

We also work with Modified Bitumen for specific applications, Built-Up Roofs (BUR) for certain commercial projects, and occasionally Clay/Concrete Tile, Slate, Wood Shake, or Synthetic Roofing depending on your specific architectural needs and budget requirements.

Roof Replacement Costs in Oklahoma City

Roof replacement costs in Oklahoma City typically range from $8,500 to $25,000 for most residential homes, but several factors specific to our region affect the final investment. Let’s break down what influences pricing so you can plan accordingly.

Size matters most. The average Oklahoma City home requires 18-28 squares of material (1 square = 100 square feet). Simple ranch homes often fall on the lower end, while two-story homes with complex rooflines require more materials and labor.

Material choice creates the biggest price variation. Standard asphalt shingles might cost $350-450 per square installed, while premium architectural shingles run $450-650 per square. Metal roofing typically ranges from $650-1,200 per square but provides superior storm protection and energy savings that many Oklahoma City families find worthwhile.

Oklahoma-specific factors include:

• Storm damage considerations: If your roof suffered hail or wind damage, insurance may cover replacement costs minus your deductible
• Removal complexity: Older homes sometimes have multiple layers of shingles that require complete removal, adding $150-250 per square to labor costs
• Permits and inspections: Oklahoma City requires permits for most roof replacements, typically $75-150 depending on home size

Timeline affects pricing. Emergency replacements after storms cost 15-25% more than planned replacements during our slower seasons (fall and early spring).
